I picked up this gorgeous
shade lipstick from the Wet n Wild Megalast Lip Color and fell in love with it instantly. It’s a semi-matte lipstick with great
pigmentation. Although it’s a matte it isn't drying (atleast on my lips) but I do add a lip balm before applying. It has a crayon smell which isn't appealing
to me at all. A lot of people have said it’s a dupe for MAC Rebel, so if you
don’t want to spend hefty, this is a great alternative.

I have been getting alot of questions about how I achieve my buns so I decided visual was better and I did a video to show you guys. I usually rock a natural bun to work and casual outings. However, when I want more volume with my buns, I add a sock for more uniformed and large look.

Take a look of how I do my buns in the video:

From the pictures below the two top pics almost look identical but you can tell that the sock bun is more defined.

Don’t you just hate when
you spend your hard earned money on a product especially when everyone is
raving about it and it doesn't work for you. You can opt to give it away to friends or family if you want, but if you
are like me and don’t like wasting money you WILL find a way to make it work
for your hair.

Do you remember me whining
about the Aussie Moist Shampoo and how my hair hated this stuff (see my review here). Well, even though I diluted it to reduce the harshness, it still didn't work and then a thought came into my head. Since my CON Moisture & Shine Shampoo is so moisturizing why not add abit to the Aussie Moist Shampoo to test it out. This is what
I did:

[1] Get an applicator bottle

[2] Pour some Aussie Moist
Shampoo to point 1 in photo

[3] Add some CON Moisture
& Shine Shampoo to point 2 in photo

[4] Add Water to point 3 in photo

[5] Add 5 drops of Peppermint
Oil

[6] Shake very well before
use.

I have the best of both
worlds right now because my hair gets cleaned and still remains

I’m currently 8weeks post
relaxer but I feel like I’m 10-12weeks post, these coils are seriously
business. I usually do a strong protein
treatment every 6-8 weeks and the last time I did one was 1 week post relaxer. Protein wash day also means hopping in and out the shower 3 times *argh*.

[1] Prepooed with Coconut Oil
with a few drops of peppermint on my scalp [did a scalp

massage for 5 mins] and on the length of my hair for 30mins under my heat cap.

This hairstyle was a
mishap and so unplanned. My hair was in a ponytail and the front was left out.
Not wanting to undo my pony tail I just twisted the front section and glided it
around my high ponytail, then bun my hair. I wore my hair like this for 3 days
then I switched it up and wore a low bun for 2 days.

I like the fact that it
adds character to the side of my face instead of the same old bun which is
combed straight back without any parts. No sock was used for any of these buns. Sorry for the quality of the pics, it was taken with my phone.

I have been looking for a purple lipstick for the longest while so when I sawModen Makeup post on Facebook that Imart was carrying the Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids Lip Colors (gosh that’s a lot of name), I took the opportunity to go get the Brazen Berry which cost $19.00BDS
